ApacheCon US 2008 Session

Solr Boot Camp

Solr has emerged as THE way to add search services to applications
written in any language. Lucene powers Solr's lightweight HTTP web
services. This all-day tutorial will begin with a Solr overview,
and move through installation and configuration. The bulk of
session will be spent diving deeply into integrating Solr with
various technologies. Solr features caching, replication support
for load balancing, faceting, highlighting, more-like-this, simple
HTTP protocol supporting XML, JSON, and other formats. Erik will
discuss his Solr experiences on the applications he has built with it.
